Fort Knox Jackpot $280k and rising

Friday, 28 January 2011

One lucky Sit N Go player at TitanPoker.com is in line for a massive pay day courtesy of the site's Fort Knox Jackpot which currently stands at $280k.

The Fort Knox Jackpot is progressive, starting out at $50,000 and growing from week to week until someone claims the prize. This is done by winning six Fort Knox Jackpot Sit ‘n’ Go tournaments in a row, each with a buy-in of $50 + $9.

Players who come close to hitting the Jackpot without actually hitting it can also win a consolation prize. Any player finishing in either 1st or 2nd place in six consecutive “Fort Knox Jackpot Sit ‘N’ Go” tournaments will be rewarded with a $750 prize.

Italian player 'Campusgold' cracked Fort Knox last year and pocketed a $290,000 bonus. To follow in his footsteps sign up for an account at TitanPoker.com.
